Halloween Scoop Bag

Hey all, we assumed everybody would be extremely busy this ghoulish weekend and figured to we might as well save the updates for Sunday. However, we have recently received an increased amount of incoming email from our readers and thought we'd post some of them for interest only. We have not confirmed any of these posts.

Movie Scoop Bag


The first email that we have selected has to do with Poltergeist 4 -- Poltergeist Kayeri.

Got a couple more bits of info on it for you gents - if you're keen.

Craig T.Nelson would be returning to star as the father in it, as you said. It's called "Poltergeist Kayeri" and was over at MGM.

I know a little bit more about it - if it happens or not, I dunno - I know that Sony is the studio behind it, Clint Morris is the writer, and I know that there was talk of Hilary Duff playing the older Carol-Anne. Duff, I just don't see - but that's the name that's come up. She is blonde - I guess? I sense that was a 'studio' suggestion.

Please use a codename for me...


We shall call you 'BBK'.


The second email we selected featured a couple quick Sylvester Stallone updates from our new friend 'shannon.'

ROCKY 6:
www.Stallonezone.com and www.Wikipedia.org report that Dolph Lundgren will appear briefly in the film, Rocky is supposed to visit Ivan Drago in hospital where he is dying of AIDS in Rocky Balboa.

RAMBO IV
Tommy Lee Jones is in talks to join the cast of Rambo 4, says www.Stallonezone.com. Jones would play the role of Colonel Trautman, previously played by Richard Crenna in the first three movies. Crenna died a couple of years back.


And, for the final piece of digital media, we have an interesting report from 'C-Man' on the shopping habits of Andrew McCarthy.

Anyway, long boring story short - - - - I had the pleasure of 'literally' bumping into the wonderful Andrew McCarthy at Tower Records /Sunset today. You may remember he was the guy in all those John Hughes movies. Such a great actor in his time - haven't seen him in anything since that crappy Stephen King series from a couple of years back.

Anyway, I was piling through the soundtracks - looking for the "Sky High" soundtrack actually, which was near best sellers, as it turned out - and turned and bumped into the guy. I was a bit shocked when I saw his face. He just smiled, and kept walking. He was still browsing so I thought I would say hello and congratulate him on his work - wow, what an amiable fellow, he shook my hand, said he "really appreciates that" and so on.

I asked him what he was up to and he said he's in L.A to meet on a "Mannequin" sequel - him and Kim Cattrall. He then said something about a film called 'Oprhanage King' or 'Orphan King' and said he's in that.

Anyway, I know it's not much and I know he's not a big star these days, but it was good of him to chat so I thought I'd send it your way.

BTW - he had a couple of CD's in his mitts, one was the Mulholland Drive Soundtrack.


For some reason I found myself chuckling through the last bit of email.

Anyway, I think that just may do it for this Saturday on Halloween weekend.

Happy Halloween! Be Safe!

Stay tuned for updates.
